Chapter 17 7. Power showdown

Yufeng Hotel is not far from Kistler Market, just a few minutes' walk away.After more than 20 days, Lan Jiashan returned to Liuzhou, feeling strange.Maybe it was because he had been underwater for a long time, and the unique noise and hustle and bustle of the city made him uncomfortable.He really wanted to adjust his thoughts.When it came time to face many things, for example, he had to submit his resignation report at the unit, and he had a showdown with Excellence.He had to decide the direction of his life. At this moment, he was nervous, apprehensive, and a little scared. The facilities of Yufeng Hotel are very old. Fortunately, it is located in a busy city and the business is good.Lan Jiashan went to the main station to report his name and got the room card.

When I entered the room, the first thing I did was to call my classmate and current colleague Wang Jian.Wang Jian and Lan Jiashan got along well. He was from the north, he was big, and he valued sex over friends. He was not surprised by Lan Jiashan's call, and asked him casually when he would come back to work.It seems that because the factory has never been officially put into production, Lanjiashan's absence for more than 20 days is no different from leaving for a day or two. Knowing that Lan Jiashan was going to resign, Wang Jian was not surprised at all. He said that the textile unit had no future and he was looking for a relationship to transfer.He then asked which unit Lan Jiashan would be transferred to.Lan Jiashan said that he would do business with his family.Wang Jian said "OK" and hung up.These days, everyone is busy with their own affairs, who cares about others?

Lan Jiashan took a deep breath, and then dialed Joyo.She quickly recovered and mistook him for someone else. She yelled at him on the phone: "Come on, it's your show soon. I've already tuned up two, and I can't move it back." After learning that the other party was Lan Jiashan, she was surprised and hurriedly asked Where does he live, I will contact him later and hang up the phone. She thought it was natural for him to return to Liuzhou, so she was secretly happy.Lan Jiashan felt a strong sense of guilt when he thought that his next decision would disappoint her. He called Moore again, she was like his safe haven, like his microphone.He doesn't have to worry about her being disappointed, but she still cares about him as always.

Moore also seemed to be in the midst of a noisy show.He wondered, what day is it today, why are everyone having a party?Moore told him with a smile that she and Excellence represented their respective units to participate in a staff performance in the same urban area.The winner goes to the district-wide extravaganza, so no one spares.And they are the literary activists in their respective units. Moore thought he had made up his mind to go back to Liuzhou.Delighted and congratulated on his selection.Lan Jiashan couldn't confess to her on the phone, so he had to ask her to meet at night.He emphasized that no matter how late he was, he would see her, and he would see her alone.Moore agreed and took down his room number.

Lan Jiashan's plan is to let Moore inoculate Excellence first, paving the way, and then he will have a showdown with Excellence. After making these few phone calls, Lan Jiashan collapsed on the bed exhausted, let this end as soon as possible and start over.But the cruelest price is to temporarily sacrifice his relationship with Excellence.The days when I used to get off work and date every day have become a luxury. You have to take control of your life, no matter how bad it is, you have to keep your hands on the steering wheel, Lan Jiashan reminded himself, the heartache was not diminished.

Lan Jiashan began to write letters to Zhuoyue.This time, he wrote much more smoothly.He told her how much money he made from the second stone, and he bought a third stone, and he was determined to continue in this business. He lied to her that he would not go into the water any more and he could not worry her.He said that he was just on the boat every day, looking for stones that could make money. He met President Zhang, who was a very good teacher. "Wait for me for four years, and I will earn enough money to restore my family's life to its previous level. I will buy a house, a car, and take you on a trip."

The last few sentences are almost meaningless, like a review or a letter of guarantee.He sighed. A sentence popped out of his mind: I never thought that there would be such clouds this summer. The reason why he remembered this sentence was because he had written this sentence in his diary. More than 20 days ago, he and his colleagues returned to Liuzhou from Xi'an for advanced studies. colorful clouds.Before dusk, Caiyun was left behind by the train, and he wrote this sentence in his diary. This is also the last sentence in his diary.At that time, all his body and mind were thinking about the excellence, the person who was immersed in the river of love, but suddenly wrote this line of vicissitudes of words sadly.

Is this some kind of hint somewhere? After one night, as soon as he got off the train, he called his family, and only then did he learn that something had happened to his family.His life changed completely. This sentence marked a watershed in his life. When facing the most important turning point in his life, the 22-year-old never wrote any words. The diary is closed, and the carefree youth is gone forever. But the moment of the vast sunset is firmly engraved in the deepest part of his memory. This is the taste of growing up. Some beautiful things will always pass away slowly inadvertently.

After Lan Jiashan finished writing, he planned to ask Moore to bring this letter to Joyo. Suddenly there was a girl screaming outside the door, Lan Jiashan opened the door in surprise, and saw a girl wearing sunglasses struggling desperately in the arms of a tall man, who hugged her drunkenly and kept saying: "We've seen it, we've seen it." He was trying to pull the girl into the next room. The girl suddenly cried out in a crying voice: "Lanjiashan." It is actually excellent! The man was taken aback, while Lan Jiashan was shocked.He threw himself on the man's back, the man's center of gravity was unstable, and he fell to the ground. Lan Jiashan's blood surged, and he punched him in the face. Zhuoyou screamed and pulled him away. The waiter also heard the news and stopped him loudly .

The man suddenly turned over and knocked Lan Jiashan to the ground. This guy is obviously well-trained.He swung his fist and was about to smash it down, Zhuo Zhuo jumped on him and bit his arm hard, the man was stunned suddenly, and he was half sober from the wine. He said to Lan Jiashan, "I've seen you." For three full seconds, the three of them looked at each other in blank dismay.Lan Jiashan suddenly remembered that they met two hours ago.He is the boss named Mo in Shenzhen. Lan Jiashan looked at Zhuozhuo again, she was dressed very strangely today, she was wearing a red tight skirt, but she was wearing a down jacket, her hairstyle had also changed, she was wearing sunglasses and lipstick.

Lan Jiashan was confused for a moment, the man hurriedly stood up and said: "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding." Zhuo Liang cried, Lan Jiashan's eyes turned red, and he rushed forward impulsively, but was held back by Zhuo Liang and the waiter.At this time, a young woman wearing high heels came over and exclaimed in surprise: "Mr. Mo—" Mr. Mo breathed a sigh of relief, and said repeatedly: "I admitted the wrong person, I admitted the wrong person, you came a step late, I mistook this lady for you, and I misunderstood you." Zhuozhuo turned his head and left, Lan Jiashan hurriedly grabbed her and pulled her into the room, Zhuozhuo was so angry that he sat on the bed and cried.Lan Jiashan didn't know how to persuade her.Someone knocked on the door, and Lan Jiashan opened it angrily. It was Mr. Mo with a bruised nose and swollen face. He apologized: "I'm sorry, I'll calm down for you later." Zhuozhuo yelled at him to get out, and he withdrew embarrassingly, but a fierce look suddenly appeared on his face. Zhuozhuo yelled at him hysterically: "What does he think of me, and you still know him." Listening to Zhuojiao's tone, it seems that the second crime is more serious than the first. Who told you to dress up like this.Lan Jiashan complained in his heart, but he didn't dare to say these words out of his mouth.Because she was crying with pear blossoms and rain just now, and it was hard to stop her tears. She told Lan Jiashan to call Moore and asked her to bring a set of clothes for herself from home. She goes into the bathroom. "It stinks to death, it's all the smell of that pig's alcohol." She stopped suddenly, thinking about something wrong: "Why don't you go back to the dormitory and live in the hotel?" Lan Jiashan vaguely said that it was a friend's treat. He is still clear-headed, and now is not a good time to talk about resignation. Excellence asked vigilantly, "What friend? That pig?" Lan Jiashan said that he only had a face-to-face meeting with him two hours ago, so Zhuoyue didn't ask any further questions. Moore, however, quickly delivered Zhuo Zhuo's clothes, and her stage makeup had not yet been removed, because she was round and short, and looked top-heavy, which was a bit funny.After learning what happened just now, she leaned forward and backward with laughter. Only then did Lan Jiashan know from Moore that because Zhuo Zhuo's parents went to Yantan, the two girls took advantage of the performance tonight and colluded to give Lan Jiashan a surprise, so they dressed up like this. This is not a surprise, it is clearly frightened.Fortunately, Zhuo Liang washed off all his makeup and regained his refreshing appearance. Wearing denim overalls and ponytails, his mood improved. "You're finally back." Moore scolded.Lan Jiashan complained incessantly, what should be done next? Liao Huibo called the room and asked Lan Jiashan to come to the restaurant to meet him. Mr. Mo also knocked on the door outside, asking Lan Jiashan to convince his girlfriend and give him a chance to make amends. Of course Excellence refused to go, Mr. Mo tore off a thick gold necklace from his neck, put it on the table, and said in a rough voice: "You must go, otherwise I will turn against my little brother, as long as he is still here This is your apology." Thinking of his embarrassment just now, he said bitterly, "Hey, if I hadn't just finished drinking and became dizzy, why would you Is it my opponent?" After listening to his drunken and confused explanation.Joyo and Moore just wanted to keep him away. Mr. Mo suddenly hugged Lan Jiashan's shoulders, leaned into his ear and whispered: "Give me some face, otherwise I won't be able to hold my head up in front of you in the future. We will be friends in the future, won't we? President Zhang thinks so" I, Mo Mou, dare not underestimate people." Lan Jiashan was very sensible and agreed. In the elevator, Zhuo Zhuo and Moore repeatedly questioned Lan Jiashan. They wondered if he had recently joined the underworld, otherwise how could he have met such a rude person and forced them to participate in the entertainment. Lan Jiashan repeatedly explained to the two of them how authoritative and charismatic President Zhang is, and everyone was lucky enough to gather together because of President Zhang's face. Moore worried: "What if the underworld forced Zhuoyou to sleep with him just now?" Lan Jiashan couldn't laugh or cry, Zhuoyou grabbed his arm fiercely, Lan Jiashan was relieved, it seemed that her anger had subsided a lot.They watch a lot of Hong Kong movies, and they probably don't watch less tertiary movies. "What's with the sunglasses?" Zhuoyou asked curiously, "Does that person have any tattoos?" During the conversation, they walked into the restaurant box, where a group of people were laughing loudly.Then he turned his eyes to them in unison.Mo Xin must have just recounted that joke, and everyone showed great interest. The atmosphere at the table was unexpectedly harmonious.Mo Xin made Zhuo Zhuo laugh with a few words.Everyone quickly switched between different topics.Liuzhou and Nanning are not big. Uncle Zhuoyue works in the headquarters of a bank in the district. Moore's father is the director of a certain factory. From them, all kinds of intersections and conversations are quickly derived. I heard that Zhuoyue works in a bank. Mo Xin He promised to help her colleagues get some deposits at the end of the year, and Liao Huibo also said that he could help.Zhuoyou was very happy to hear that, and hurriedly toasted everyone. The harmony and harmony at this moment gave Lan Jiashan an illusion that Zhuo Liang might understand his choice.This business has a bright future. Liao Huibo suddenly asked: "Lan Jiashan, what is your relationship with Vice President Xie of the Electric Power Group?" Zhuo Liang wanted to pierce Lan Jiashan's disguise, and said loudly on purpose: "He borrowed 200,000 from Vice President Xie." Lan Jiashan was a little embarrassed, but everyone present was surprised. Liao Huibo felt that the relationship between the two was unusual.He smiled and said, "I've always wanted to find a chance to meet Vice President Xie, brother, please introduce me." "I'm afraid I don't have such a big face." Lan Jiashan said frankly, "My brother got into a traffic accident and caused her son to die. We compensated her a lot of money and wrote an IOU, so I went to Yantan Be a sailor." Everyone was shocked when they heard the words. Moore declared: "He has decided to go back to Liuzhou to work." It seems that saying this will cut off Lanjiashan's retreat. Liao Huibo looked at him in bewilderment: "Is this the relationship between you two?" It sounded so bizarre that he seemed to be playing tricks on him. Lan Jiashan smiled wryly, and simply confessed: "The letter Vice President Xie brought me last time was written by my brother in the detention center. She visited my brother more times than me, maybe because she was afraid that we would escape the law. Sanction it, so keep an eye on us." Moore couldn't help but introduce the situation of Brother Lan Jiashan, saying that he was an honest man who did something stupid. Liao Huibo learned about Brother Lan Jiashan's situation in detail. He said that he had acquaintances in the local area who could take care of Lan Jiashui, and patted his chest to promise that Lan Jiashui could go to work in his company after he came out. Chairman Zhang solemnly toasted Lan Jiashan with a glass of wine.With a double entendre: "Cheers to our little brother." The men raised their glasses: "For brothers." Zhuo Liang stared at Lan Jiashan intently, making his heart shudder. Mo Xin threw a stack of photos on the dining table: "I came a step late. I gave Li Dong the first. But, why are you two joining in the fun?" Mo Xin pointed to Lan Jiashan and Liao Huibo, and said with a smile: "One Decoration, a stone scooper, road robbery, I came all the way, I paid an extra 10,000, you transferred the stones in your hands to me." Liao Huibo shook his head with a smile, saying that this stone is very commemorative to him, because President Zhang's advice enlightened him, and it was the first stone he bought in the industry. Mo Xin looked at Lan Jiashan with a funny expression, as if teasing him or begging him. In fact, Lan Jiashan really wanted to sell that stone.The sooner the funds are withdrawn, the better. Zhuo Liang carefully looked at the photo of the stone and asked how much Lan Jiashan spent. "Thirteen thousand." Zhuoyou asked in a low voice, "Where did you get so much money?" Lan Jiashan replied: "My friend and I jointly bought it." He didn't dare to say Lin Xiaozhen's name. "The person I admire the most is him." Liao Huibo pointed to Lanjiashan, and said, "He used all his money to bet on this stone. I am ashamed. At that time, I could have taken down all the stones in one go .” "Then you will be famous." Li Tailong smiled.He was the one who picked up a big bargain at the end, so it is suitable for a concluding speech: "I admire him the most. He dared to buy stones from Mengjinhai. Think about it, a novice who just entered the industry, a small sailor, dared to buy stones from Mengjinhai. Meng Jinhai's stone, this young man must have a bright future." Liao Huibo shook his head and exclaimed, "He is more daring to bet than I am." ashamed.Lan Jiashan's face was a little hot.Well worth the money. Zhuo Zhuo seemed to have read Lan Jiashan's mind, and said with pouted lips: "I suspect that you didn't know who Meng Jinhai was at all." She whispered, "You can consider selling it to the underworld, but don't agree to him now." Mo Xin stared at the two of them intently, and said, "This kid already has an investment advisor. It seems that he won't be bought so easily."
